Controlling Tv Playback - HP Media Center m7200 - Desktop PC Software Manual

Controlling TV playback

The personal video recorder functionality lets you
record single shows or capture entire series for later
viewing.
When you open the My TV window and begin
watching live TV, Media Center automatically
begins recording the selected program in the
background for up to 30 minutes. When you pause
a live TV program while watching in full-screen
mode, the time-shifting window appears. To record
a program longer than the 30 minutes, you must
select to record the program.
You can return to the live broadcast by pressing the
Live TV button on the remote control.
When you change the channel, Media Center
deletes the previously recorded portion and begins
recording again after a short delay.
The 30-minute pause
buffer applies only
when pausing,
rewinding, and fast-
forwarding live TV.
Media Center allows
you to record a
program for longer
than 30 minutes
when you select to
record the program.
You cannot pause a
live TV program and
then rewind to the
beginning of the
pause buffer and
then begin recording.
You can record a TV
program only from
live TV.
The digital video
recording features
are for select models
only.
